Anthrocon featured as Hip, Gay, Fetish party in Mate Magazin by Louiefurrywolfy -- Fur Affinity [dot] net
Reactions:
1.) Oh boy, here comes the "We're not gay and we're not a fetish" thing.
2.) Anthrocon? Internationally hip?
3.) What if a bunch of skeezy circuit queens read this in the magazine and just show up at Anthrocon thinking it's like the White Party or something? Free X for the furries! *shudder*
4.) Figures if Anthrocon was brought to international attention as a "fetish event" the Germans and the Dutch would be the ones to sniff it out.
Bronyville Episode 006 – Friendship is a WORD
Author: AppleCider
Dear Princess Celestia,
Today we had a fanfic writer on the show who talked with us about many things. We discussed Rainbow Dash’s sexuality (or lack thereof), military bronies sporting Fluttershy shirts, and providing our adoring and awesome fans the references they desire to ship us to the moon and back. Afterwards we talked about how to better ourselves through reading and how not to write a painfully bland Nightmare Moon fic. And as always, our fans are awesome and much brony love. *BROHOOF*
Sincerely,
AppleCider

PSS – Please Princess, don’t actually ‘ship us to the moon’. That’s a metaphor and we know you can do it.

Piccadilly Circus to the rescue!
Author: RingtailedFox
April and May 2011 were record-breaking in terms of tornado outbreaks and casualties, with hundreds killed across the southern and mid-western states of the United States. On May 25, an EF5/T11 tornado devastated the city of Joplin, Missouri, severely damaging one of its two hospitals, and killing over 145 people.
It just so happened that the Picadilly Circus was in town when the tornado struck. With so much devastation around the city, and construction equipment being used, the Circus decided to assist in disaster relief, by using their elephants to clear away destroyed automobiles and other heavy debris from the streets, so emergency vehicles could get through. The circus also ran a fundraiser this weekend in aid of the relief efforts.
Recovery will take months and will be filled with hard work, but this is exactly the type of morale boost the city of Joplin needs.

“Carnal Shock” by Rahne Kallon
Author: toonces
Rahne Kallon serves up a generous portion of pulpy goodness for this week’s meeting so hot it had Skip driving distracted. There is a certain playfulness with stereotypes and expectations, and a dalmatian discovers that there’s a good reason for foxes to top every once in awhile. Or at least, they’re certainly going to have to if we’re going to whittle down the number of unsatisfied bottoms in this world.
We hope you enjoy the show, thank you to everyone who sent in their thoughts!… Read more..

Top Cat on Facebook
More interesting news from Cartoon Brew: If you haven’t heard, Illusion Studios in Mexico is currently working to animate a new hand-drawn 3D cartoon film starring Hanna Barbera’s famous character Top Cat — and his friends, of course. Don Gato y su Pandilla is set to premier this fall… and now it turns out the film has its own Facebook page. True, it’s in Spanish, but it might be worth a “Like” to keep track of the film’s progress.

Tom & Jerry Live on Stage
In Argentina (of all places!) the brand new stage musical Tom and Jerry Live recently premiered at the Teatro Lola Membrives in Buenos Aires. From there, the producers plan to take the show on tour through Chile and Peru for the rest of 2011. According to them, “Under the direction of Leandro Panetta, Tom, Jerry, Spike and the gang go on stage, recreating classic cartoons with songs, chases, jokes, games and stunts. Tom and Jerry travel from opera to medieval times, then run and chase from the living room into the garden. Actors, dancers, singers and acrobats on stage guide to the public in this magical world where Friendship is always the result of each and every encounter persecution.” Cartoon Brew says that the production is based on specific cartoon shorts, including The Two Mouseketeers, The Cat Above the Mouse Below and the Gene Kelly sequence from Anchors Aweigh.

Cry Havoc and Let Slip the Dogs of War!
Since the operation earlier this month that took out Osama Bin Laden, War Dogs have gotten a lot of press. These canine defenders of US Freedom go through extensive training to become highly effective members of the military.
The Daily reporter Justin Rocket Silverman recently visited the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs to see how some of the nation’s top military dogs are trained. He even donned a special suit and offered to be tackled by one of the military canines.
There is much more to the story than the training. Once these dogs are done with their duty, what happens to them? In years past, these animal heroes were put down. Now there is a growing movement to adopt them to caring homes. ABC News gives further detail:
As Americans across the country celebrate this Memorial Day by celebrating the men and women who have served in our armed services, another group of dedicated warriors goes unrecognized.
Officially, dogs that serve with U.S. soldiers are labeled “surplus equipment,” but they are so much more to the soldiers they help on the battlefield.
Stories of the dogs used by SEAL Team 6 in the mission that killed Osama bin Laden have renewed interest in adopting the dogs as they retire from their military service. But adopting a canine veteran can cost as much as $2,000, as the military does not pay for the dogs’ return trips home.
“They’ve [known] heavy training, combat, gunfire, explosions and just like a human, you should retire at some point and live a more peaceful life, and that’s what these dogs need,” Ron Aiello, president of the U.S. War Dogs Association, told ABC News. “They only have two, three years remaining in their life, and I think they should live it with a loving family and in a peaceful atmosphere.”

Review: ‘Kung Fu Panda 2? sets a new bar for animated action
Author: crossaffliction
In my review of Rango, I mentioned that it took the crown for animated slapstick action. For me, the movie Rango took it from was Kung Fu Panda. After holding this crown for less than a season, the chameleon must relinquish it to the panda.
But there is much more than slapstick going on in either of these two movies. While Rango was, of the two, more of a movie-lover’s movie, Kung Fu Panda 2 may end up being the favorite among furry fans.

Review: ‘Fuzzy Ergo Sum’ by Wolfgang Diehr
Author: Fred
“Fuzzy Ergo Sum”, by Wolfgang Diehr
Boalsburg, PA, Pequod Press, March 2011
Hardcover $ 38.00 (299 pages), Kindle $ 7.99
H. Beam Piper’s “Little Fuzzy”, about the discovery by humans of cute furry natives on the planet Zarathustra, was first published in 1962. It became a minor classic, being nominated for the Hugo Award for Best Novel in 1963, and inspiring four other Fuzzy novels up to 1982.
Two of those not by Piper were later declared to be “not canon”, and Piper’s three Fuzzy novels were published together in 1998 as “The Complete Fuzzy”. As soon as the copyright on “Little Fuzzy” expired in 2006, numerous public domain editions were published in paperback and Kindle, and on the Internet by Project Gutenberg.
Now a new Fuzzy novel has been written by Wolfgang Diehr, a Piper fan who moderates the Piper Worlds discussion group on Yahoo.com. Diehr wrote the novel over three years with the editorial assistance of John F. Carr, the Piper expert who edited many of the Piper reprint collections for Ace Books in the early 1980s, and Carr has published Diehr’s novel through his Peqoud Press.
